The Effects of Binary Evolution on the Dynamics of Core Collapse and Neutron-Star Kicks
Ph. Podsiadlowski, N. Langer, A. J. T. Poelarends +3
We systematically examine how the presence in a binary affects the final core structure of a massive star and its consequences for the subsequent supernova explosion. Interactions…
Models for Type I X-Ray Bursts with Improved Nuclear Physics
S. E. Woosley, A. Heger, A. Cumming +6
Multi-zone models of Type I X-ray bursts are presented that use an adaptive nuclear reaction network of unprecedented size, up to 1300 isotopes. Sequences of up to 15 bursts are fo…
Presupernova Evolution of Rotating Massive Stars and the Rotation Rate of Pulsars
A. Heger, S. E. Woosley, N. Langer +1
Rotation in massive stars has been studied on the main sequence and during helium burning for decades, but only recently have realistic numerical simulations followed the transport…
